L’objectif principal de l’étude est de documenter le modèle de la Centrale agricole en effectuant une collecte de données permettant de réaliser une évaluation environnementale et économique du modèle mutualisé sur l’activité de ses membres. Pour la coopérative, les présents travaux permettront de préciser et de générer de la donnée sur les impacts du modèle […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

In Canada, one out of every nine hospital patients acquires infections annually, resulting in a minimum of 8,000 deaths. These infections often stem from inadequate sealing of transepithelial medical devices, which breach the skin’s protective barrier. While current treatments rely on antibiotics, the prevention of infections could be achieved through effective integration of medical devices […]

PCB stator motors are an emerging research area with cost and efficiency benefits compared to traditional motors. PCB stator motors with integrated variable frequency drives have the potential for significant power density improvements if Galium Nitride (GaN) power semiconductors are used in the drive. In this project, emerging high voltage GaN semiconductors will be used […]

In this project, we aim to investigate the applicability of a digital micromirror device (DMD) combined with microfluidic devices for the fabrication of complex 3D constructs at a micron scale. The fabricated constructs will be used as microrobots for biomedical applications.

Modern deep neural networks have demonstrated remarkable performance across various visual recognition tasks, including image classification and semantic segmentation. The effectiveness of these networks largely relies on having abundant labeled examples for each desired category. Acquiring such datasets, however, poses particular challenges in the context of semantic segmentation, where a label is required for each […]

Residential buildings contribute approximately 17% to Canada’s overall primary energy consumption, with the majority allocated to space heating, particularly space heating. The proposed research will focus on optimizing energy efficiency through inter-room air transfer, utilizing a central blower system. SmartCocoon’s product includes fans at each room diffuser (AKA vent/register) such that heat can be strategically […]

The generation of clean hydroelectric power occurs often in locations far from consumers. High voltage transmission lines that traverse vast terrains are employed for the transmission of the generated clean electric energy. They are exposed to various environmental conditions, including wildfire smoke. Wildfire smoke has the potential to decrease the breakdown strength of air insulation, […]

Background- Bacterial analysis in the field is complex and often imprecise. It is therefore difficult to detect and identify a specific strain in a timely manner, which complicates the choice of an optimal treatment regimen. This is a critical issue and bacterial infection are taking an increasing toll on the population and the health services. […]

In bridges, the deck slab or panels are usually connected to the supporting girders using various types of shear connector like bent bars or threaded rods which make the interfaces significantly congested. For reducing this congestion, bridge contractors normally use steel shear studs. The proposed new research is exploring the use of double-headed fiber-reinforced polymer […]

Carbon dioxide is considered one of the main greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The gas causes huge environmental and social negative impacts. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce gas emissions to benefit the communities and societies. The project focuses on CO2 capture by amine solutions and solid materials. Besides the laboratory measurements, the work continues […]

NuVista Energy (“NuVista”) intends to develop a commercial scale demonstration of a multi-purpose hydrogen hub with blending for gas-fired turbines and future transportation fueling leveraging the novel Pulse Methane Pyrolysis (PMP) technology to significantly reduce GHG emissions related to fuel gas consumption. The demonstration project will be located at our Wembley gas plant cogeneration facility […]
